The Beach

This past weekend we went camping on the Long Beach Peninsula with the boys and our friends Rick and Stephanie. The weather was spectacular and we spent some time at the Long Beach Kite Festival which was totally amazing, watched Rick fish for perch from the beach while the boys played in the surf and tide pools and I squeezed in a 20 mile run in 2:52. The run took me from Klipsan Beach to Ocean Park across the peninsula to Oysterville then looped back to Ocean Park for the return to Klipsan. It was a really nice run with little wind and temps in the low 50s.

Yesterday was another tempo run of 6 miles and since signing up for the marathon I have now run 642 miles. Denise did her longest run yet last Friday at 14 miles and just left the house to do an 8 mile tempo run. This weekend she has a 12 miler and I have an 18 miler.

Off to spend time with the boys before heading to the office.
